The World is Your Cellar

What We’re All About

Since 1978, Lifford has proudly represented some of the world's finest wineries in Ontario. We offer wines of exceptional value from dedicated producers with an emphasis on family owned wineries. A pioneer of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario’s consignment program, Lifford has grown to be the largest supplier of premium wine to restaurants and discerning consumers in the province.

In 2010, Lifford became a national agent in Canada with our acquisition of Saverio Schiralli Agencies, an iconic company founded in 1953. The Schiralli portfolio features many of Italy's best with the addition of a superb collection of liqueurs and spirits. In 2011, the acquisition of Prevedello and Mathews further strengthened our management team and our portfolio.

This year, our combined companies will sell more than 800,000 cases in Canada. We are the market leader in Ontario as the largest supplier of premium wines to the LCBO.
